The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I LWB is a luxury car built by British manufacturer Rolls-Royce. It is based on the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I, but has its wheelbase extended by 10cm. When the Silver Shadow I was replaced by the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II, the LWB versions were called 'Silver Wraith II'.

History

Moonraker

When arriving in Rio de Janeiro, James Bond is collected in a grey & black Silver Shadow I LWB, a 1973 only model, due to minor details like lack of additional air intakes. Due to the rubber bumpers, it appears to be a car built for the North American market that somehow found its way to Brazil.

For Your Eyes Only

The personal car of Aris Kristatos is a white 1969-1971 Silver Shadow I. Although we don't see him use the car himself, he lends it to Bond, who uses it to take Lisl von Schlaf home. The chauffeur appears to be Kristatos' henchman Apostis.
